Dented Bottom (my boat, not mine)

[pacerpilot]

I just dragged another unwanted, neglected, abused, filthy dirty, beat up, orphan Mac 25 home. She sat on an ill fitting trailer for a while and has large shallow depressions in the hull bottom. I've seen this before-on my previous Mac 24 in fact-as I'm sure many others have. I'm torn between installing formers inside to make her as fair, as I did on my Mac 24, or just run with it. There's no structural compromise, it just looks funky and I'm sure it will affect performance to some small degree. Whad'a Y'all think?

that happened to a friend's boat. it was flipped on its side in a storm, and sat for a week.

-it popped back into shape after a few days.

can you put it in the water, and apply some pressure from the inside? air bag/ or use a ram?

It's relaxing a little bit but the depressions are still there. I might try floating it with some braces to add pressure in the right spots.
